Pygments
Python syntax highlighter
From a recent Python entry:
import re,string ver_regexp = re.compile("^(cvs\\.)?(\\d+)((\\.\\d+)*)([a-z]?)((_(pre|p|beta|alpha|rc)\\d*)*)(-r(\\d+))?$") suffix_regexp = re.compile("^(alpha|beta|rc|pre|p)(\\d*)$") suffix_value = {"pre": -2, "p": 0, "alpha": -4, "beta": -3, "rc": -1} endversion_keys = ["pre", "p", "alpha", "beta", "rc"] def ververify(myver, silent=1): if ver_regexp.match(myver): ...
This is the home of Pygments. It is a generic syntax highlighter for general use in all kinds of software such as forum systems, wikis or other applications that need to prettify source code. Highlights are:
- a wide range of common languages and markup formats is supported
- special attention is paid to details that increase highlighting quality
- support for new languages and formats are added easily; most languages use a simple regex-based lexing mechanism
- a number of output formats is available, among them HTML, RTF, LaTeX and ANSI sequences
- it is usable as a command-line tool and as a library
- ... and it highlights even Brainf*ck!

Though Pygments has not yet won an award, we trust that you will notice it's a top quality product <wink>.
